The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act requires a 60 day notice. But only covers those with 100 full time employees or more. I do not know the set up this for profit school used, so I can not guess if they fall under that. But, you should defiantly speak to someone at the department of employment security ASAP. They can at least get a claim started and retraining going if needed.

There was maybe 15 full time employees, if that.

In the one location or all locations? And full time is counted as anyone working over 20 hours a week and employed for at least 6 months in the act. If the owner only closed the one location, then you should be able to move to another or else they risk other liabilities. Regardless go to the DoE and get a claim started if you are impacted by this shutdown.

I, fortunately, was not impacted. However, there was only one location. We had no janitorial staff because the students did all the cleaning. The only staff were teachers and office workers.
